John Corrall says that despite the virus and the threat of Brexit, IIJ had a record year in 2020 and with new products coming on line in 2021 the company is very confident of a bright future.
In December 2020, IIJ USA moved to a larger facility in Golden, Colorado, USA and important additions to their team to ensure continued growth, capabilities and support in 2021 and beyond.
